Camouflaged scene understanding (CSU) has attracted significant attention due to its broad practical implications. However, in this field, robust image-text cross-modal alignment remains under-explored, hindering deeper understanding of camouflaged scenarios and their related applications. To this e
Object reorientation is a critical task for robotic grippers, especially when manipulating objects within constrained environments. The task poses significant challenges for motion planning due to the high-dimensional output actions with the complex input information, including unknown object proper
Humans can steadily and gently grasp unfamiliar objects based on tactile perception. Robots still face challenges in achieving similar performance due to the difficulty of learning accurate grasp-force predictions and force control strategies that can be generalized from limited data. In this articl
For elastomer-based tactile sensors, represented by vision-based tactile sensors, routine calibration of mechanical parameters (Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio) has been shown to be important for force reconstruction. However, the reliance on existing in-situ calibration methods for accurate for
In typical in-hand manipulation tasks represented by object pivoting, the real-time perception of rotational slippage has been proven beneficial for improving the dexterity and stability of robotic hands. An effective strategy is to obtain the contact properties for measuring rotation angle through…
The force feedback of vision-based tactile sensors is always expected to be accurate and robust. This work focuses on indicating and lessening the limitation of the structure of the vision-based tactile sensor's elastic body on the distributed force reconstruction performance. The conflict between t
Tactile perception has been a hot topic of research in robotics. Robots sense the shape, material, distributed force, slip during contact, and use the multi-modal contact information to control grasping and manipulation. For vision-based tactile sensors, the contact representation and extraction det
High contour accuracy is vital to the multi-axis motion system. Improvement in the contour accuracy of the parallel kinematic machine (PKM) has being a challenging issue in the process of its practical application. In analogy to the intelligent structure of the organisms, this paper proposes a smart…
